"I'm a pilot and I know just about every machine that flies. It was bigger than anything that I've ever seen. It remains a great mystery. Other people saw it, responsible people," Symington said Thursday. "I don't know why people would ridicule it."
Symington, who was in his second term as governor of Arizona during the Phoenix Lights incident, recently told a UFO investigator making a documentary that he had kept quiet about his personal close encounter because he didn't want to panic the populace.
The two notable things about this are: (1) Symington is a very credible witness as both a trained pilot and high ranking government official; and (2) fear of panicking the public as a reason to cover up alien contact has become a cultural meme.
In fact, there would have been good cause to believe (2) 60 years ago. The pandemonium caused by the Orson Welles's radio broadcast of War of the Worlds had occured fewer than 10 years before the Roswell crash. Any Eisenhower Administration official involved in the Roswell event would have had this in the forefront of his mind when handling the issue.
Assuming you believe the Roswell events occurred, then there are some very interesting questions. Have we been gradualy accurated to the idea of extraterrestrial biological entities through our popular culture for the past 60 years? If so, how would we react now if the government actually revealed "the truth" about Roswell? Would we behave as our grandparents had in the 1930s, or would we just shrug it off and silently think "I knew it!" Would the government reveal such information to the public before developing weapons to defend ourselves from the new "invasive" species?
The cultural impact of such a governmental revelation, if mishandled, (and is there a correct way to handle it?) COULD be severe. The political consequences range from impeachment of the President and Vice-President whose administration revealed the info (because they hadn't come clean sooner and had covered it up) to a sprawling decades long Congressional investigation. And then there's the potential religious upheavel which is impossible to estimate.
The massive potential chaos caused by such a revelation could reverberate around the globe and result in a global temporary autonomous zone. What an event to live through. It would be almost like living through the Biblical endtimes. Maybe that's why the meme keeps spreading - it simply updates an underlying fear.
This year marks the 60th anniversary of the Roswell event.
Governor Symington seemed to not understand why his sighting of a large UFO would be subject to so much ridicule.
ReplyDeleteThis somewhat reveals how closely held still, after all these years, is the secret of the Extraterrestrial presence in our world.
The reason "ET" is still classified "Above top secret," is due to the still secret plans to wage a full blown nuclear war.
The decision was made in 1946 to destroy the mass of the human race with the newly invented nuclear weapons.
The Extraterrestrials exhibit what many may consider a form of ownership of the planet, and everything on it and in it.
The "ET" have given our nuclear war fighting elite a sort of "Time out," to allow them to select a new strategy, a strategy that does not include a full blown nuclear holocaust and the genocidal extermination of the human race.
It is really all so obvious, you merely need to understand few basic principles of reality.
The "Kernel," that is the group of people who determine policy for the betterment of the Dominant class, have selected a strategy of genocide of the mass of humanity.
The "ET" have expressed their disapproval of the plan to destroy the human race and the planet with the use of nuclear weapons, and the "ET" have taken actions which have hobbled our nuclear war fighting class.
"ET" has dropped out of the air, a significant number of military planes over the decades, and sunk several submarines, in an attempt to help our nuclear war fighting class to seek help and find a way that they can change their destructive impulses.
The "ET" appear to be acting in a manner that we could consider as a "Wise Elder," would do to prevent the damage from the rage of a child's primitive and poorly controlled destructive impulses and instincts.
We exist only due to this continuing intervention into our world. If not for the "ET," we all would have been turned into nuclear waste decades ago.
We are The Living Dead.
